AC/DC Play Last Scheduled Show of 2024 Comeback Tour in Front of 82,000 Fans: Video + Setlist
AC/DC closed out their 2024 comeback tour with a concert attended by over 82,000 people at Croke Park in Dublin, Ireland.
The rock legends ran through a 21-song setlist, opening with a one-two punch of “If You Want Blood (You’ve Got It)” and “Back in Black.” The evening featured plenty of other hits spanning the band’s five-plus-decade career: “Thunderstruck,” “Hell’s Bells,” “High way to Hell,” “Dirty Deeds Done Dirty Cheap,” and “You Shook Me All Night Long,” among others.
The set also featured two cuts from the band’s 2020 album, Power Up (“Demon Fire” and “Shot in the Dark”), as well as some choice deep cuts from the discography such as “Riff Raff,” “Stiff Upper Lip,” “Shot Down in the Flames,” and “Rock ‘n’ Roll Train.”
A truly explosive encore of “T.N.T.” and “For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)” ended the evening and tour. For this run, classic members Angus Young (lead guitar) and Brian Johnson (vocals) were joined by rhythm guitarist Stevie Young and new touring members Chris Chaney (ex-Jane’s Addiction) on bass and Matt Laug on drums in place of classic members Cliff Williams and Phil Rudd, respectively.
The gig concludes the first AC/DC tour and extended set of dates with singer Brian Johnson since 2016. Eight years ago, Johnson was forced to step away from the “Rock or Bust Tour” due to hearing issues, and Guns N’ Roses singer Axl Rose famously stepped in to front AC/DC for two dozen shows.
Johnson’s returned to the stage with AC/DC came late last year with a one-off gig at the Power Trip festival in California. The UK/European tour announcement followed in February. It remains to be seen if a North American tour is in the works, but the fact that Johnson made it through the latest tour without any major problems is an encouraging sign.
